Abstract
A system and method for embedding a streaming media format header within a session description message. The streaming media format header is encapsulated within a session description message as a header attribute. The streaming media format header describes complex relationships between available media streams. The session description message also includes a list of content description attributes storing metadata about the media streams. A media description field in the session description message stores a stream attribute identifying a media stream associated with the media description field.
